Default Fancy a working holiday in rural SW France?

We own an 18th Century traditional Landaise property situated on the edge of a very quiet and charming village of around 100 people north of Orthez, located between Biarritz and Pau.

We are planning to to spend 6-12 months in France starting from May/ June 06 renovating the interior of the house and one of the barns, and landscaping and paving the exterior.

That's where you come in!

We are looking for able bodied, hard-working and easy going couples or guys with renovation skills to help us transform our home. We will provide board and lodging plus a day's rate based on a 4 or 5 day week so that you spend the week-ends exploring this beautiful corner of France; we're just over an hour from the beach, the Pyrenees, Lourdes and Bordeaux.

Would suit backpackers or budget travellers, or couples who just want to do something different for a while.

Interested in a healthy working holiday in SW France?

Drop us a line....
